We take plenty of photos but for most of us, it’s pretty difficult to get good at it. No matter how hard we’re trying. Others, however, can produce a spectacular image even when they’re not.
The subreddit r/AccidentalRenaissance is the biggest online “gallery” for these works — it showcases photographs that inadvertently resemble well-composed Renaissance-style art.
“We recognize there are many related art movements between the 14th and 19th centuries, including Baroque, Neo-classicism, Romantic, Dutch Golden Age, etc. All of these styles are appreciated and welcomed within this subreddit!” the moderators of r/AccidentalRenaissance write.
Following up on our earlier publications (part 1, part2), we put together a new list of the best masterpieces the subreddit has to offer. Enjoy.
